Yo! I have been absent from the forums for almost 4 months, and I am getting back in business baby!.. kinda. I have said this already, but I have zero experience. (See what I did there? Zero? Pi Zero? Ha! Ill go jump off a bridge now) So, I decided to start simple, no Wii portable (Ill get into that when I finish this), just a Pi project.
Ill use the Zero because it is the smallest out of all the pi's, and because thats enough for me. Also, cheap as heck. (Lets go! Broke and wasting money on this!). Besides, I'll probably just play Metroid Zero mission and Sonic games. As for the case, I am thinking of a DSi XL Shell. However, ill have to buy one from Ebay. I would like to use the original buttons. I dont have much more planned, but ill most likely get one of those keyboards fruity_grebbles is selling, or two, yolo. I want to give you guys the not so hard task of choosing good components for someone who cant even afford a soldering tool. I can change the case If needed, but im hoping not (If I do, ill use a USB SNES controller). I need a screen, a battery, you know, basic stuff (Im not good at choosing components).
I will most likely start buying parts in 2-3 weeks, so I need a full plan by then. If you have any suggestions, let me know! (My budget is around 100$ and I have to get the Pi kit of 25 us, so that leaves roughly 75$, i need cheap components, but ill spend more for better quality)
